ATLANTA — The Hawks have signed Atlanta native Derrick Favors to a 10-day contract, hoping he can provide a boost at center while Clint Capela deals with a calf injury. Favors is a 12-year NBA veteran who played one season at Georgia Tech before he was selected No. 3 overall pick by the Nets in the 2010 draft. The Hawks will become the fifth team he has played for in a career spent mostly with the Utah Jazz. Favors took part in morning shootaround ahead of a home game against Milwaukee. The Hawks have six games over the next 10 days.
